Soup is so hearty and comforting on cool days. I LOVE it. I recently was working on some recipes with my daughter and we came up with this delicious cauliflower butternut squash soup. It was creamy, savory and everyone loved it.

Cauliflower Butternut Squash Soup Recipe

I LOVE butternut squash. It’s one of my favorite foods. I love growing my own too. Home grown squash is more flavorful because you can leave it on the vine until it’s perfectly ripe. I also love that butternut and other winter squashes can be stored for months with no special preparations and no refrigeration needed.

Soup is great to make because you can use up whatever you have on hand and end up with a delicious meal. I like to clean out the refrigerator and create something amazing.
